WTb/WTT : Painter

[mango]

Hey guys.

A good friend of mine has done me a big favour and I want to pay him back by giving him a nicely painted Marine army of 3000 points

I am looking for someone to base and paint an army for me to a high standard probably in Dark Angel colours or maybe Space Wolf

I can pay cash, but I would prefer to trade.


Probably the best trade bait I have would be a heap of epic squats including:
Land Train
4 balloons
9 gyros
3 giant cannon things
2 big tank things with a gyro on the back
heaps of plastics

I also have some plastic titans and marine stuff I could also swap or WFB/BB/40k etc

Let me know if you are interested

[Cthulhu_gump]

More out of curiosity (as Im not too sure if I'd have the time), but have you got any more info about it like what are you wanting painted? By when? etc.

[mango]

I am after a generic marine army.

I am open to suggestions as to what a good 3000pt army is as long as it is pretty versatile. I have most marine models, so I would like to include

dev formation
assault formation
tactical formation
predators
land raiders

timeline? no great rush, i would like to be done by easter but there is no deadline.

After getting this 3000 point list done i would like to get one painted for myself, but 1st things 1st, I have to look after my friend

G'day Mango.

If you wanted to sell the Squat miniatures to get funding for the paint job I would be interested.

Cheers,

Andy.

[mango]

Andy - I will keep you in mind

No painters out there looking for a job?

[Cthulhu_gump]

Mango, I'd love to do it, but I just dont have any time...

I've got too many armies on the go.

[frogbear]

I also would love to help out yet I am

1. not confident enough with my painting skills as yet and
2. am painting my own 3000 point force.

Just letting you know that this thread is being read.

Cheers....

[mango]

bumpitty bump, offer is still out there

Have you hit up Onyx or Mark Logue direct? Both are awesome. They probably also know other awesome painters (my theory here is kind of like the "hot chick" theory--you know...hot chicks hang out with other hot chicks).

[onyx]

LOL... Mark and I do talk often but I don't think we could be described as hot chicks!

I'd love to help but with at least another box of Iron Warriors to do and at least 6 other armies/projects already here waiting, it's pretty hard for me to justify taking on more work at the moment.

Sorry mango.

[marklogue]

My schedule is rediculously full at the moment. The only chance of me doing some commission painting is if my job is sacrificed on the altar of the Economic downturn, which is something I am really hoping won't happen.

I don't really know anyone else who would do some commission Epic stuff.

I think their are a couple of foreign painting services around that may be afordable, I know one has been mentioned on www.tacticalwargames.net forums that could do epic.

[madchimp]

I can certainly help you out, though not for trade unfortunately. I'm getting out of Epic as there is no one in my area playing. I'd do it for a good price too, just love painting

I am selling off my copy of Epic along with the Ork and Marine army it comes with. And the Marines are partly painted and modded to Space Puppies. Also have a few Land raiders too. Anyways, let me know if your interested in the paint job

[mango]

Hey madchimp, do you have any pictures of your work?
